Turn off the channel just before engaging the lock and look for secondary markers to guide you to LDB boat launch. Water shoals to 6 feet quickly and then moves at that depth three quarters of the way towards the boat landing. Depending on your draft and your nerves, move in towards shore and anchor in what appears to be a large, relatively flat area in 5-6 feet of water. Based on our draft we did not push in but it appears that there is a good anchorage for smaller boats in good weather with shore access at the boat launch. We did not record cell coverage.
